Reading and Math shouldn't be just about doing well on Standardized Tests. Learning should never be restricted to just that. #MoreTeachingLessTesting #TBATs @IllinoisBATs @IndianaBATs @iowabats @LouisianaBATs @MissouriBATs @ArkansasBATsA @MNBATs1 @Wisconsin_BATs #TeachNotTest

Vouchers hurt public schools. It's just one more way extremists try to undermine, underfund, and overtake public schools. #TBATs #SupportPublicSchools .@MIBATS .@ArkansasBATsA .@MNBATs1 .@LouisianaBATs .@iowabats .@IndianaBATs .@IllinoisBATs .@Wisconsin_BATs

Poll after poll shows that 90% of the public LOVE their public schools. Let's show the candidates in November that we won't support them, if they don't support our schools. #TBATs .@VermontBATs .@ctbadassteacher .@MaineBATs .@RhodeIslandBats .@massbats .@NHampshireBATs .@NJBatsa
Private businesses put profit over people. Every dollar spent on kids is a dollar less they get to put in their own pockets. It's not magic, it's greed. #TBATs .@VermontBATs .@massbats .@ctbadassteacher .@NHampshireBATs .@MaineBATs .@RhodeIslandBats .@MarylandBAT .@BATsDelaware

Teach for America is a corporate entity that says it can teach non-educators to be teachers in a 5 week boot camp. (Note: they can't.) Now, TFA is planning on turning those 2-year wonders into principals. That's a really bad idea. dianeravitch.net/2021/09/18/tfa… #TBATs @Network4pubEd
He is playing silly games & telling stories via video chat with his quarantined friend so his friend won't get lonely. He might be academically behind because of Covid, but is way ahead on his humanity. #TBATs #LearningLoss @massbats @NHampshireBATs @RhodeIslandBats
The Sound of Silence by Grumpy Old Teacher badassteacher.org/bats-blog/the-…
Decisions, decisions. What's a school district to do? How narrow a focus should a school district have on the health of students? Should we only worry about Covid or should we also address other viruses that spread through schools? grumpyoldteacher.com/2021/05/16/dec… #TBATs @massbats
Teaching was hard & demanding pre-pandemic. But teaching in the covid-era is beyond hard, it's unsustainable. No wonder teachers are walking out the door. We need to find ways to get them back. #TeacherAppreciationWeek #TBATs badassteacher.org/bats-blog/i-am… @RhodeIslandBats
As an @AFTunion teacher member, I would have been very concerned if the @CDCgov set-up coronavirus guidelines for opening schools without consulting teachers. CDC did outreach with 50 industries, why wouldn't @SenatorCollins want, & expect, outreach to schools! @BadassTeachersA

Same corporations that make the tests make textbooks & test prep materials. First they make money from the tests, Then they make money off the materials they sell to "help" students do better. So the more kids fail, the more money they make. #TBATs @massbats @NHampshireBATs
